Oooh!
No, in fact, I never did - I clean forgot.
If you direct me to what Thread it was on, I'll be happy to continue with my "discrete" reply. I was enjoying that Thread, but I do get a bit busy & forget things.
I'll not be able to reply until Monday though, as I'm at SPT all day tomorrow, & through to the early hours of Sunday, then I gotta drive down to London, groan.
An "Ask tikay" Thread? I suppose I should not say this, but I'd actually love that, as long as it was not restricted solely to Poker, & could be about anything.
In fact, if there is any interest, let's do it!
Ask away.
$5r on stars, rebuy period is over, eff stacks with villain are ~15k @ 200/400/25
Folds to CO, who has been limping around 80% IP (HJ, CO and btn), who limps, btn (who's just joined the table) limps, I raise Ad4c, BB, CO fold, btn calls.
(t5025) FLOP: QsJs3c
Hero Bets: 3600
Villain: calls
(t12225) TURN: Ks
Hero: Bets ~9600 (all in)
Thoughts?
you win 10 free internets
I like it, but wr have to get our read right here, or we are toast.
I don't like it. He's even money to have a spade, & if he does - any spade - he calls. We are putting our Tourney on A-4 OOP.
Surely, playing the best part of 40 x BB, we can find a better spot than this?
As to Villain, I find these Stations incredibly tough to play against. Was he limping to hope he hit (a "Bingo Limper"), or with a plan to bet out if weakness was shown? I do the latter a lot, & playing as deep as he was, it's fine to do, it's very effective, & awkward to combat.
I'd not get involved here, & hope either you or he gets a Table move.
If he Limps beyond this Level though, his chips are on offer, & he can't Final unless he gets very lucky.
Overall, I wanna find a better spot than this.
It seems that the standard line with spades for him would be to shove the flop, stack sizes are like perfect for it.
And, I think that I can rep a flush Q's + FD, Kings, Kings + FD, so he folds J's /w no spade, and like Jx 6s-9s some % of the time?
Idk, I don't think theres any hands that call the flop that have no pair + 1 spade.
idk, just felt slightly spewy.
In the Half-price haddock game - what was the casino's hake?
Just to use your pun a little better. :-)
It sounds like "fun".
I usually just hit the all in button when that happens lol as i am sure i must be slight fav to win anyway!
Questions about choo-choos and similar. :-)
Idk, so like Th9h on a 8h7x2h board vs like 8xXx (x = any non heart)
Off the top of my head
9 Hearts
6 Straight outs
6 Overs
twice
Feels like 72% ish
Edit: and If i miss I take up backgammon ldo
I've been Offline for most of the last 3 days, but I'll pick up this Thread later today, once I've cleared my backlog of "stuff".
PS - Message to Dingdell.
However, questions such as "what is the price of Haddock?" will be dealt with politely, patiently, & with understanding & tolerance,

"woteva" mya not ever stop being funny
Did you have a nice break yesterday?, what is the longest railway bridge in the world please?
Why of why did you not ask one of us to run the competition yesterday? Kiwini and I both said we would have been more than happy to start the thread, and update it (Should we have been able of course
Two genuine poker questions here which i have asked loads of pple without an answer so i thought i would ask the top bloke. Orford was not availible so i will ask you...
1. When i started playing cards years ago, the 'suit' order was always HEARTS, CLUBS, DIAMONDS, SPADES. However, after playing poker 'on line' that order seems to have changed to put SPADES as the 1st suit. Can you explain this please?
2. What are the odds of AA being dealt to both players in a heads up?
Thank you
1. Suit order? There is an order in bridge (SHDC) but why would there be one in poker?
2. The odds are 4/52 * 3/51 * 2/50 * 1/49 which is 270,724 to 1.
